In Appreciation and Interest Irving Fisher (1896) derived an equation connecting interest rates in any two standards of value. The original Fisher equation (OFE) was expressed in terms of the expected appreciation of money [percent change in E(1/P)] whereas the ubiquitous conventional Fisher...

Noting that many economic variables display occasional shifts in their second order moments, we investigate the performance of homogenous panel unit root tests in the presence of permanent volatility shifts. It is shown that in this case, panel unit root tests derived under time invariant...

In this paper we follow an empirical approach to examine the implications of the Fisher hypothesis, namely cointegration linking interest rates and inflation, and stationarity of the real interest rate implying in turn homogeneity of the potential equilibrium relation. The considered sample is...

The objective of this paper is to evaluate whether the Fisher Hypothesis holds in the context of Sri Lankan financial markets. Using the Rupee denominated three-month Treasury bill rates from 1978 to 2007 on annual basis, from 1983:1 to 2003:1 on quarterly basis and from 1982:1 to 2006:12 on...

Fisher Hypothesis implies a one-to-one long-term relationship between nominal interest rate and inflation. Though this one-to-one relationship does not hold in most of the financial markets, there exists strong evidence for a partial relationship between the two variables. This study inquires...

This study reconsiders the Fisher effect for the UK from a different methodological perspective. To this aim, the nonlinear ARDL model recently developed by Shin et al. (2014), is applied over the periods of 1995M1-2008M9 and 2008M10-2018M1. This model decomposes the changes in original...
